REVIEW: That1Guy @ WOW Hall (Eugene, OR – – 2/11/09)

Well, this was my 5th time seeing That1Guy and the Magic Pipe. He is a truly mesmerizing performer… the inclusion of the Magic Saw and Magic Boot are also great, but the true show is seeing Mr. 1Guy put a crazy go nuts university seminar on the Magic Pipe.

The opener was Seattle’s Flowmotion. I only caught their last 3-4 songs, but I liked them. Kinda of a more rock style jam band. The best part for me was their drummer and drummer/ percussionist combo. Two of the 3-4 songs I saw had some cool extended dual drum solos.

T1G came on right around 9:30. He seemed to play a very similar setlist to the time I saw him a year and a half ago at John Henry’s, but much more energetic… having a pretty packed house at a bigger venue on a Wednesday definitely didn’t hurt the energy. :)

Setlist:

Forgotten Whales leading into Instrumental Intro Jam

Jigsaw

Weasel Potpie leading intoInstrumental Jam

the one with “heaven or heck” in the lyrics

Dig (with the magic boot)

Buttmachine (extended)

Instrumental Jam

Bananas

Somewhere Over the Rainbow(with the magic saw)

One(with card tricks)

Jam Session with Flowmotion drummers(T1G’s credit card jam)

…

Great show… I left at about the 90 minute point (it’s been a long week for me so far). If I had to wager a guess, I bet he played “Mash” and/or “The Moon is Disgusting” and/or “Birds” as encores… but that’s only a guess.
